Chapter 147: A little subtotal

Chapter 147: A brief plan

When Yan Song returned home, he felt exhausted both physically and mentally. He lay on a chair, put a hot towel on his head, closed his eyes and rested. It took him a while to recover.

It seems that Yan Song was just talking in front of Jiajing. He was not tired at all. But for Yan Song, every time he went to see Jiajing, it seemed like a big test. He had to prepare fully and think about it secretly. This is different from Xia Yan. Although Xia Yan was under pressure in front of Jiajing, he was definitely not tired to this extent.

I can only say that Yan Song was too thoughtful.

"Father, how about it?" Yan Shifan saw Yan Song recovering, waved his hand to drive away the maid holding the copper basin. He came forward in person, bubbled the towel in the hot water, and placed it on Yan Song's head again.

Yan Song said, "It's much better."

Yan Shifan asked, "Then will it be smooth to go to Xiyuan this time?"

Yan Song said: "It's generally going well, but it's not possible to catch Zhang Zhi and Xu Jie and his group in one go."

Yan Shifan was a little disappointed and said, "Well, father is going to let them go?"

Yan Song said, "Of course not. Send someone to the Ministry of Personnel to find Meicun. I want him to do this matter in Beijing and let him do it for me. My adopted father will not treat him badly. There will always be his good job. Now that Your Majesty does not want to make a big move, we will move a little, and accumulate a lot. First, move the Ministry of Justice, and let me see how strong Yu Maojian's temper can be."

Yan Shifan said excitedly: "Yes."

The Meicun that Yan Song mentioned was Zhao Wenhua. When Yan Song was in the Imperial College, he was Yan Song's disciple. Their relationship was similar to that of Xu Jie and Yang Jisheng. However, Zhao Wenhua recognized Yan Song as his adopted father and won his favor.

He was placed in a key position in the Ministry of Personnel. Although Yan Song recommended Shangshu Xia, he could not have made the power of the Ministry of Personnel completely in the hands of Shangshu Xia. Zhao Wenhua was a key pawn.

Yan Shifan said: "Who Zhou Mengchen is so arrogant, my father responded one or two?"

Yan Song said: "Of course I want it. If you don't teach me a lesson, he will go to heaven. However, he is your favorite minister after all, and I can't deal with it openly. Haven't you found out that thing? You can let it go. Remember to leave it aside with the palace, everything is Zhou Mengchen's business."

Yan Shifan said, "Don't worry, my father, I know the importance of it. I will not involve the palace. Just ask my father to watch the show." While speaking, Yan Shifan's eyes showed a gloating expression.

For Yan Shifan, this incident was just a small task. However, Yan Shifan's opinion, the attack on Zhou Mengchen was fatal.

Since ancient times, the speed of rumors has been amazingly fast. It seems that no one can stop people from eating melons. With Yan Shifan's intentional fuel, the news seems to have grown wings, spreading wildly in the capital and mutating into various statements.

Zhou Mengchen had not yet felt the amazing power of this rumor at the first time.

The first person to feel the amazing power is Li Yunzhen.

On this day, Li Yunzhen heard the manager below and said that there were not enough vegetables at home.

Li Yunzhen was very surprised and secretly dissatisfied.

Zhou Mengchen didn't take care of the family affairs very much, and all the affairs at home were managed by the hostess Li Yunzhen.

However, although Li Yunzhen is in charge of dozens of people in the Zhou family, it is impossible for him to go shopping for vegetables in person. Moreover, this is Beijing, not elsewhere. How could there be no situation in which he cannot buy vegetables?

Li Yunzhen said: "What's going on? Why aren't even enough food?"

After a while, one of the servants said carefully: "Madam, it's been rumored that our master killed and scattered the corpses, and made the corpses of the people who were so scattered, and even ate human flesh and drank human blood."

"Yes, yes, yes," said another person: "We don't believe it, but what we said outside has a nose and eyes. It said that the unclaimed bodies in Beijing were pulled over and were discharged in the hospital."

"It's been a lot of news now that people selling vegetables outside don't sell them to me anymore."

"This is too much." This low voice muttered, but he didn't expect that no one dared to speak, so Li Yunzhen could hear this very clearly.

This sentence is too much, but I don’t know if it’s not to buy vegetables or what Zhou Mengchen did.

When Li Yunzhen heard this, her face changed suddenly and said, "Who did you hear it? When did you hear it?"

"It's been one or two days?"

"It's been one or two days, why didn't you say it earlier?" Li Yunzhen knew the seriousness of this matter. She was anxious for a moment, worried about what impact this matter would have on Zhou Mengchen. However, no matter how anxious he was, he had to deal with the matter in front of him first.

After all, people cannot stop eating.

Li Yunzhen said: "Let's do this, send someone to the farm to deliver letters and ask them to deliver vegetables to their homes in the past few days."

Fortunately, the Zhou family has a royal farm, and even if it does not sell vegetables, there is always a way to support it. Li Yunzhen's mind is on Zhou Mengchen at this moment and asked, "Where is the master now?"

The servant below said, "This time should be in the yamen."

Li Yunzhen immediately said, "Send someone to find him and ask him to go home immediately."

"Yes." A servant went immediately.

Li Yunzhen said, "The others are all separated."

Some people left, and some were hesitant and refused to leave.

Li Yunzhen said: "What else do you have?"

A few servants looked at me, and I looked at you. The last older one left the list and said, "Madam, it's not that we are heartless. There are really some things, and we can't help it. It feels bad to be tied up by neighbors. When we came to work, the master said that we can leave at any time, but I don't know if we count it or not?"

There were not many people who were brought to the capital by Zhou Mengchen, and there were dozens of people in Zhou’s mansion, plus the people who managed the imperial village. There were quite a few people.

Of course, we have to recruit people from outside.

Others naturally want to sell their contracts, but Zhou Mengchen doesn't like them very much. In some key positions, using tenants from Duhuangzhuang is almost equivalent to selling their contracts as slaves. After all, their family's livelihoods are all in the hands of Zhou Mengchen. Some of them are simply signing short contracts, similar to the current labor contracts.

Li Yunzhen sneered and said, "You just go and find Butler Cheng."

Li Yunzhen didn't have time to control them. She was even more worried about what the situation would develop.

Just when Li Yunzhen was worried, someone suddenly said, "The master is back home."

Li Yunzhen went to see it immediately. But he saw that Zhou Mengchen was in extreme embarrassment, his body was filled with dust, and even bleeding from the corners of his mouth. There was a smell of unknown effect on his body, and he seemed to be rolling on the ground a few times. Li Yunzhen said, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Zhou Mengchen said while wiping the blood on the corner of his mouth: "It's okay."

Li Yunzhen was anxious and said, "You are like this, why do you say it's okay? Xiao Huan, go and get me a medicine box." He was about to clean up Zhou Mengchen immediately.

Zhou Mengchen smiled bitterly and said, "It's not necessary to have a small injury, but you have to change your clothes."

After changing into clean clothes, Zhou Mengchen told Li Yunzhen about the situation.

Almost when Li Yunzhen heard the rumors, Zhou Mengchen knew it too. He knew that something was wrong in his heart and rushed home immediately. As a result, he was stopped halfway. If Zhou Mengchen had not been an official, many people would not dare to touch him, and it would have been like simply overturning the carriage. It would have been as simple as a fall on the streets of Beijing.

And what Beijing streets look like in this era? I have also said before.

It can be said that shit and urine flowed, and all kinds of sewage flooded. Zhou Mengchen rolled on the ground, but his injuries were not serious, but he had a strange smell all over his body.

When Li Yunzhen heard this, she was anxious and her eyes turned red. She said, "What should I do?" She paused slightly and said, "I blame me. If I hadn't practiced medicine, it wouldn't have been the situation today."

Zhou Mengchen smiled softly and said, "There is no airtight wall in the world. I knew that this matter will spread sooner or later. But I never expected it to spread so quickly. When I made this decision, I had already expected today. Don't worry, with me, it's okay."
